I do not think it is a $2k card but the person who reached out to me is a rabid Yankee fan so I can see why he made that offer.
Anthony Seigler is the better seller based on ebay sales but he is going down in price. Ryder wasn't that strong out of the gate in sales department and now I see him creeping even lower, not even holding steady.
So yeah, when this is all done I will prob be like maybe $1,000 - $1,500 shy of breaking even. That is, assuming I keep stacking up on low end autos for these 2 guys. If I start hitting Blue or better color for Seigler in particular, I can see a break even point or better. I am not worried though as this is all a gamble.
I focus on a draft player or players when I join these auctions and go in with intent to hold and hope they pan out.
If I can easily sell base chrome for $1 each + $2.60 shipping, then this is a huge win for me. Not there yet for these guys. not sure when that will be either but it's all good as I am not in a rush. I rather not sell their base chrome in bulk just yet either.
My OP has my Google Sheet you can look at for results per break - if anyone want's to take on the math project when I an done with totals, rock out. I wont be doing it.
The Gorman spot is a beast of a spot but keep in mind that it could of easily been the opposite. You just pay up and hold on for dear life basically, lol.

Yeah, that Gorman spot hit the jackpot. Almost best case scenario for him, the highest valued prospect keeps popping out.
Prospecting isn't for the faint of heart that's for sure. You said it, just hold on for dear life and hope your guy turns out to be the real deal.
Entertainment value is hard to put a price on as well, the joy prospecting and buying into breaks brings is overlooked many times when considering cost.
